MOUNT OLIVE TOWNSHIP — Authorities are investigating the death of a 6-month-old girl from the Eagle Rock Village apartment complex in Budd Lake.

Multiple law enforcement agencies responded to a medical call Wednesday morning about the infant born last August. The unnamed baby was transported to Hackettstown Medical Center where she was pronounced dead, said Morris County Prosecutor's Office spokesman Peter DiGennaro.

The investigation is active and the cause and manner of the baby's death are pending a determination by the Morris County Medical Examiner's Office, he said.

DiGennaro did not comment on whether the investigation is criminal in nature but the Prosecutor's Office and Medical Examiner's Office by law would be involved in the probe of how the baby's death occurred.
